Bangladesh court orders Interpol red notice for arrest of Labour MP Tulip Siddiq

A Bangladeshi court has ordered an Interpol red notice for the arrest of British lawmaker Tulip Siddiq over corruption charges. Siddiq, a Labour MP and the niece of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, is accused of using family connections to influence a land deal in Dhaka. She has been sentenced in absentia in other cases and rejects all allegations, calling the proceedings flawed. This action follows the overthrow of Sheikh Hasina's government in 2024 and a subsequent change in political power.
